A bit of a tree hugger. I like a good book, films that are older than me (and that's old), Derby County, cricket and long walks in the country.

I'm hoping they get a big enough points deduction to beat Derby County's unenviable Premier League record. In the 2007/2008 season Derby finished on 11 points, I would be very happy to see that record smashed.

Doesn't matter if the performance itself is staged. The fact is, talented musicians coming together and giving a performance in a public space means the masses get to witness this for free and that's beautiful. TT: Raphaël Froissart IG: Michel Tirabosco ~ Pan flute

I remember it well. Programmes were interrupted to bring, what I believe, was the first 'news flash' on British television. It was the most shocking news item I'd ever seen in my 13 years on this planet.

All the best to Wednesday. My team, Derby County, were in a similar situation a couple of years ago and now we're holding our own in The Championship. Sheffield Wednesday is a great club with a great band of supporters.

As a Derby fan, I feel your pain, another disappointing result away to Oxford. On the plus side, Forest were trounced at home and are now in the relegation zone.

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

Thank goodness they were able to nip it in the bud. It's worrying to think that these terrorists walk among us disguised as caring, law abiding citizens.
